Securing an assignment is a very exciting time and if it’s your first assignment it can seem a little overwhelming…..

The Models Direct team have put together their top tips to help you be at your best on your assignment, here are a few useful things to remember:

Get as much information as you can about the company you will be representing. It is useful to have an idea of what is expected of you on your model assignment. Most companies will have a website you can use to get some details, or your agency may have a visual of the shots they are looking for. This will give you an idea of what is required of you, as well as understanding ‘the product’.

Oh my goodness your baby is so beautiful! Such lovely eyes and such a cute smile…..sound familiar??

If you are a parent you know your baby is beautiful and you will receive numerous compliments, but how do you know if they are right for modelling?

At Models Direct we represent baby and junior models, our team speak to parents everyday to discuss the possibility of representing their child. In the industry baby models are used all the time, in commercials, campaigns, catalogues and TV work, however it is competitive and obviously babies and children change all the time!

Models Direct have models out on assignments most of the time and all over the UK…..

Therefore it’s impossible for a member of the Models Direct team to be at every assignment, so the Assignment Coordinators here are always asking our talent to take behind the scenes pics (obviously with permission from the client!!).

The internet has changed dramatically over the last few years, particularly social media and the ability we now have to promote ourselves online, you could ask…..Why have an agent??

Models Direct has been established for nearly 30 years and has seen how the modelling & talent industry has evolved and why it’s now more important than EVER to be with a professional agency – here’s why:

During the final of ‘I’m a Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here’ on Sunday evening the Models Direct team were super excited to catch a glimpse of the new Pampers commercial featuring our models Renatta and Alisha……

This assignment was such an exciting opportunity for the girls, sometimes job like these come up quickly for models, other times they can wait for sometime to be selected for a role like this, to work with a huge high street brand such as Pampers, appear on prime time TV, and receive a nice pay cheque too!
